My mate bought it for a tenner a week ago, so I might throw caution to the wind and get it anyway, even if it only provides us a few hours of co-op fun, and a break from Battlefield 5.

I’ve noticed since the update a couple of days ago, it’s been running a lot smoother. (xb1) frame rates much improved.

Fairly basic expectation for a modern game but it was bloody awful before.

You too can spend even more money $276/£209 on tacky merchandise, their 'premium' leather Vault 76 jacket.....wooooooo - https://youtu.be/jT7TKTmc7nA?t=45

If you want to look like Jimmy Savile on his 76th birthday.

What's weird is that in the time it took to turn the jacket over and photograph the back, the floor got even more damaged... look at the marks in the top left, much worse in the 2nd pic.


As for the jacket... blue is a bit bright, as is the gold, but otherwise... I almost like it. Then again, 1976 was a good year!

On the subject of merchandise and I hope this isn't tacky I managed to buy Number 498 of 500 Brotherhood of Steel Meister watches. I bought it from the USA and it is unused (still had the winder plastic clamp in place) it's actually a nice watch apart from no markings for the hour. Quite a good quality item.

Rollback to an older patch now, silently banning/deleting people raising the issues in the official forums (even the polite ones).

One interesting point from the video, would completely removing it, refunding people and then relaunching it after fixing it would work?

Or has too much damage been done, as referenced in the video Square-Enix did it with the mmorpg FFIV as the launch version was appalling so they took it down and then relaunched the fixed version which has worked for them with enough people moving from FFXI to the new version to justify new updates/expansions.

Not me for sure, I’ve restarted Fallout 3 and really enjoying it again having just re-played New Vegas to death.
Could be more bull.

I'm just finishing a play through of Fallout 3, played the original main quest, all the side dlc and I'm just playing Broken Steel now. I've hit level cap and I'm starting to get a bit bored but I don't remember how Broken Steel ends so I'm going to finish it up. It's still a great game.

One German retailer was giving away a free copy with second hand controllers

They should release a storyline DLC.

Oooh, might give that a crack, see what all the fuss is about! I guess its now available from Steam, rather than having to install Bethesda's own launcher app?
